Okay, before everyone yells at me for being a moron, I'm not a
programmer, just a writer whose trying to make his little site
searchable. I know a little unix, but am no expert.
Here's my question: My site is running on a hosted system. I have my
own www root directory and domain name. I created a cgi-bin directory
under the www root (/web/cgi-bin) and placed the tar there. I ran
tar.gz with the xzf attributes and it placed the htdig directory at the
same level as the tar file. I ran .configure, the end of which said to
run ,make. The first time I did this and got errors. I deleted the
entire htdig directory and reran tar.gz to get a clean install, reran
.configure and then tried to VI my way through CONFIG. My question is:
is there an optimal location to place these files in the heirarchy?
What are they traditionally named? I read through the documentation but
couldn't find anything that addresses this question. Also, when I
specify the directory for DEST , etc. how far back does my path need to
be? just to my web directory (/web) or all the way back to the server
root, (../../../../../../../web/cgi-bin/htdig-3.1.6/dest_name)?
Thanks for your time and patience with this non-programmer,
-dg
